    remounting smb shares

    I managed to sort this in the following way. 1) mount the share 2) make an alias 3) disconnect 4) double-click on the alias to remount the share 5) get the 'cannot be found message', but share mounts anyway 6) delete the alias 7) make a new alias from the newly mounted share now it...

    Congrats to googolplex

    Only some of you have tabs, Admiral. Don't shout too loudly about it or everyone will want one. Talking of which, yours is getting a tad on the large size with all those frappes... Anyway, the waitress hasn't turned up today. I've brought a case of Budvar. Will that do you? You can settle up...

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    Legend? L'il ol' me? I just keep you lot refreshed. Actually, I realised the other day that it's ages since I posted anything that's actually USEFUL on this site. I usually only get an opportunity to appear clever if I get to a post started by a newbie before anyone else does. My...

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    But then I'm no stranger to working in quiet bars. Mind you, this place only seems to have put on about 8 posts in tha last 24 hours! Maybe it's the nice weather - we should get a beer garden, or a terrace, Ed...

    Celebrate with me.

    I wish I could get rid of Classic, but I need to use Outlook for work and M$ are dragging their heels over an OSX version.... :(

    One Scotch coming up (although the stuff you Americans call Scotch bears such little resemblance to the real thing.... :) )

    I also think there's a whole sub-species of women that hibernate. I'm sure there aren't that many attractive women around during the winter...

    Hidden game in iPod

    you mean you've only just found it? That really made me laugh at Mac Expo when all the Apple demonstrators were playing breakout. Warning though - it's mad adictive...

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    We did have a conversation a while back about what the legal drinking age is here in Herve's, spurred on mainly by alexandert's drunken antics in the ladies toilets. Also, I generally won't serve non-alcoholic drinks as a matter of principle. That was supposed to be ksv's job, but I've not...

    There you go, sir... I guess you can afford to tip me this time then :)

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    Well, I guess in theory it's probably the entire thread. But I only have the one bar, and it's in this thread. Perhaps Ed should think about taking on some waitresses to go and take drink orders from other threads, and then I can make up the orders in this thread, and then they get delivered...

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    Any idea why the very tips of the leaves on my Yucca are going black? Admiral, I'm assuming you mean a drink, and not an implement? Or indeed a half-man, half-undead vampire slayer? Cos I can only sort you out with the first one. THis is a bar after all. (edited cos I originally put 'this...

    OS "EX" or OS "Ten"?

    That's the way I always do it. Sorry.

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    There you go, sir. Whilst we're sampling various parts of the north of England, aI had a flying visit up to Leeds this week. I thoroughly recommend it. Clears the head and invigorates the soul. To chuck in my 2penn'orth, one of the reasons that tibook.co.uk keeps getting delayed (apart from I...

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    I can see this thread growing at its current rate at least until 10.2 is announced, or indeed released. Once that happens, everyone will be too busy posting cool Easter eggs they've found or troubleshooting other people's install issues. I think the forums generally are different at times...

    Actually, this is page 133. Or not. It all depends on whatever you've got your prefs set to. But while macko's offering, mine's a pint!! Anyone else? And one at a time please!!!

    PowerBook G4/500 or PB G4/550?

    Well, to start with, it depends what you use yer machine for. You play many games, or do other graphics-intensive stuff? Also, the 550 is a faster processor, and you get an airport card as standard, so it's not only about the graphics card. I don't know what the Taiwan dollar price difference is...

    That sounds like a euphemism for something!! :D Anyone have a leather trenchcoat I can borrow? I'm supposed to be going to a fancy dress party as Spike from Buffy, but I can't find a decent coat. Mind you, it's probably a good thing because if I do find one then I'm going to have to bleach my...

    What conclusions do you reach from avatars?

    It's actually the Alternative Tentacles record label ('Giving art a bad name since 1979') logo. The government/military thing is interesting though, because the bat is actually holding a missile in one claw, and a broken cross with a dollar sign on it in the other, so I guess there's a link...
